We have an old V5 for an old address (being sorted now) but it seems the vehicle is still registered there. We've been in touch with the people at the address (known and trusted to us) and it appears as though no correspondance has been sent there, suggesting the police are using our current address rather than it failing to arrive...

I'm not sure how best to respond? My partner is going to contact the police and request information on what address the NIP has been sent to and a date but is there anything else that could be done? the NIP states we have 28 days, presumably from the date on the letter not the date of the incident.

Thanks,
so checking the date on the DVLA website states a V5 was issued the month we moved to our current address, suggesting its correct but we dont have one for this address and using this address on the DVLA website to request a new V5 results in an error. Using the old V5 with the incorrect address on it also results in an error but we get a little further.
I think we will need to contact the DVLA, find out the registered address and then see what, if anything has been sent there.

So I was driving my partners car on the 08/04/25 and have today (10/05/25) received a Notice of Intended Prosecution (over a month later) stating I was driving 41mph in a 30mph zone. She is the registered keeper and I am named on the insurance.

We aren't exactly sure where the car is currently registered (my partner has moved several times over the last few years and isn't great at keeping up with updating her v5) but she also was caught speeding last year and received the fine in time to our current address, so we assume West Yorkshire police are able to see the correct address for her.

As I understand there is a 14 day period for the NIP to be issued, the date on the latter is 09/05/25 (yesterday), what is the process and is it as clear cut as I understand (outside the 14 day period the fine is void?).

Thanks.
